Hello Spencer, Based on the TAAs, which are designed to eliminate the need for procedure turns, you should start the procedure at the north IAF based on where you are coming from. Zorme should only be the IAF if you are coming from the west, according to the TAA.

It would be nice if the approach plate were in focus.

Love it

@ 14:10 - to clarify ; You mean to fly the published missed approach procedure for runway 09 ? (not the missed approach for 36...)

[@RobertHarris-gx8vr]

You say that ZORMI is the IF when entering the procedure turn, and the IAF when entering the final approach coarse. Isn't it the other way around? You fly the IAF first, and then the IF if there is one.

You’d think CFII meant certified flight internet instructor.

Zoom in and focus when going over your briefing on the plate. Very difficult to see. The glare on the PFD was not helpful when flying the bars and glide path. Otherwise great information and looked like an ice flight!!Back in the day I was at Cecil field for F-18 training in the USMC! Guess it’s a public use airport now, and yea 8K feet is plenty!

WAAS equipped? The 172 G1000 that I rent for my IFR training isn’t, so no RNAV approaches using LPV minima.

Nice video, but I have two observations. I didn’t see or hear any checklists being run. I know it’s a relatively simple airplane, but you really should perform checklist items in a training video. Also, the iPad attached to the left front windscreen seems to block a lot of your view. Not so good for “see and avoid.”
